Announcing Over the Street Banners!

BIG Images’ over the street banners are the perfect way to spread excitement about your upcoming event! They’re a great solution for announcing:

• Festivals
• Concerts
• Local Fairs
• City Events
• Farmer’s Market
• Theater Productions

Over the Street Banners garner the attention of drive-by and walk-by traffic. As a proximity-marketing tool they raise the public awareness of your event and keep it top-of-mind.

Benefits of Over the Street Banners

• Naturally wind-resistant
• Naturally weather resistant
• Bold & vivid full-color graphics

BIG Images’ street banners are created specifically for the outdoor environment. They are waterproof, capable of withstanding rain and dew. They are also bright and vivid, staying colorfast even in the harshest sunlight.

Our mesh banner is naturally wind resistant. This offers a few benefits: increased safety because wind can pass through the entire surface area of the banner, and better readability because there are no wind-slits interrupting the image.

BIG Images’ years of experience and industry contacts allow us to quickly and inexpensively produce banners that meet the strict sign regulations of your city.

Set your business apart

When most people think of the marketing tools BIG Images offers they think of posters or some other form of eye-level marketing. But the world of large-format marketing is much broader than the customers’ eye-level. If you really want to make an impression you have to look both up and down.

Most customers use BIG Images’ products to market at the eye-level. Posters, banner stands, window graphics; all these get displayed at the eye-level. But this is a very competitive space! By making wise decisions about placing marketing materials, you can inexpensively remain at the forefront of every potential customer’s mind. Read the full article...

BIG Images is announcing the adoption of new outdoor large format digital banner and adhesive backed vinyl that increases color gamut & product quality.

In our continuing quest to improve our large format products and services we are proud to announce the immediate release of new outdoor print media: large format digital banner and adhesive backed vinyl. Each of these improves upon the qualities of the media they replaced and offers customers distinct benefits in color quality, durability, and longevity.

Outdoor banner

Our new outdoor large format digital banner offers a higher thread-count — in fact it is the industries highest — so the banner is incredibly strong and tear-resistant. It also has one of the highest white-points on the market. In addition it is more compatible with our new ink set so the colors are brighter, the blacks are blacker, and the over-all color gamut is greater than its predecessor. Its superior white-point and darker black-point give it a dynamic range far superior to our previous banner vinyl. The smooth surface allows for tighter dot-control, thus increasing image sharpness and resolution. As always the banner is waterproof, fade resistant, and can last up to 5 years outdoors. This new banner is an ideal match for our outdoor banner stands and indoor banner stands.

Adhesive Backed Vinyl (ABV)

Our ABV has an improved adhesive for better adhesion in extreme weather and temperatures. It is also more compatible with our new ink set so the colors are brighter, the blacks are blacker, and the over-all color gamut in greater than its predecessor. The strength of the ink’s bond is great enough that it can be used without lamination to replace laminated photo paper in many situations. As always the ABV is waterproof, fade resistant, and can last up to 5 years outdoors.

New Inks increase color gamut and image strength.

BIG Images recently completed the conversion to a new ink system for its outdoor solutions. These new inks bring a few direct benefits to our customers. These include:

• Increased color gamut—we can now produce better color encompassing about 15% more of the Pantone color range.
• Better weather resistance—waterproof and lightfast outdoors for up to 5 years.
• Increased strength—the new inks stick to the material better, meaning more scratch resistance and longer life

All of BIG Images outdoor solutions are using this new ink starting immediately.

One of their many events was the LA Day on Hope and BIG Images is proud to help by providing banners and signage for the event.

The 2006 event drew 3,500 participants, including 1,500 volunteers, to 6 sites in the greater L.A. area. Activities of the day included soccer clinics provided by the Los Angeles Galaxy Soccer team, health education provided by the Children's Hospital of Orange County, and mural painting to beautify the schools' grounds.
